Each spring nestles in its own pocket (unlink in traditional mattresses) and moves independently without catching on its neighbor. That means the spring only respond to your body, which makes for a more comfortable sleep.

The more springs you have, the more responsive your bed will be. All springs are encapsulated in lavish layers of natural materials, such as cashmere - silk - wool and cotton, cover the mattress in silky smooth damask and hand tuft it to perfection.

Lovely bed, it's much higher than I had imagined. Went over my budget to buy, but so worth it. It arrived quickly and two nice young men carried it upstairs. Would definitely recommend this bed and bedstar to a friend

Advantages: It's so comfortable I don't have so many aches and pains in the morning. The drawers are well worth the extra expense. Plenty of room for the bed linen with space to hide presents

Disadvantages: It's a little firmer than I thought it would be, but a soft topper has fixed that.
